Ch. 32.1 - Attack of the Necromancer(4)
“……Where did you get that from?”

Crackle!

The Skeleton General in my hand violently shook its spine and bared its teeth. However, with not a single limb left, its resistance was futile.

“I have another knack for making beef bone soup.”

"... You’re amazing anyway."

I didn't want to say that I sat and waited at the place where the Skeleton General was to be summoned, so I covered it roughly, and luckily, they didn't ask further.

“For now, let’s get out of here quickly. If the necromancer disregards the Skeleton General and starts controlling the skeletons directly, it will be a headache again.”

Boys and girls, each carrying a wounded man, followed me.

“Hey, junior.”

“My name is... Baek Yu-Seol”

“Do you have any plans?"

“Yes.”

If it was Mayuseong, he would have slaughtered the skeletons and even beaten the necromancer, but I couldn't do that.

I had to be... more efficient, and more strategic. In other words, I had to use the way of players.

“I checked all the way, and the necromancers had already taken control of the base camp. It is virtually impossible to get out of this encirclement.”

"Darn it."

“There is only one way left.”

"And that is......?"

“Defeating his main body.”

“What, what?”

“Wait, are you crazy?!”

Everyone was astonished at the method I proposed.

Even dealing with the skeleton was daunting, how the hell were we going to deal with the necromancer?

“Didn't you learn it in school? Necromancer use the strongest ability in history called command, but their main body is vulnerable.”

If they had mastered the art above a certain level, it would be a different story, but the enemy we were currently facing was estimated to be at most Class 5.

If these people joined forces, he was worth dealing with.

Mayuseong also defeated the necromancer being alone at the level of Class 4.

“That is true. But... he must have arranged escort by his side?"

“I guess so.”

In fact, I knew exactly how many of those guards there were.

There were one Skeleton General, six elite skeletons, and 50 regular skeleton soldiers.

That number would grow more and more as time went on. The opportunity was only limited. Necromancer was at his weakest right now, as he hadn’t grown in power yet.

However, I deliberately pretended not to know that fact.

“The scope already occupied by the Necromancer is quite wide. In order to cover the entire area, even Necromancer can’t invest a lot of troops in his escort.”

“...... You have a point, but there is no guarantee that we will be able to win, right?”

We can win.

Even in this event, as long as I had safely captured one of the only three 'skeleton generals', and if all of those people joined forces, we would win safely as long as there were no new variables.
